Kinda like how DARE taught us what all the drugs looked like, how to spot fakes, and how to find the dealers?

Could be accurate if (lol) they’re doing something that a properly empowered FTC/SEC/DOJ would be very interested in looking into.

That’s one of many things I find batshit insane about the US election process - the fact that there’s a months-long period after the votes are counted and a winner declared that the losing president is STILL PRESIDENT and can just do whatever they want FOR NEARLY THREE MONTHS!

Because they’re totally doing great and thriving under the current regime right? I’m not disagreeing that the Democrats need to go through substantial change, but the simple fact is that they are still the better choice compared to the dumpster fire that’s going on right now.

At least there’s still time to get good candidates on the ballot, and Mamdani has shown that a truly popular progressive has a chance to get past the establishment and win, hopefully more will follow that lead.

That still fulfils the offsite requirement of 3-2-1, so you’re still good there. If you both have a NAS, then you can be each other’s “cloud provider” as well.

Which is the reason for the local backup on my NAS - which is also in a RAID 5 configuration and can survive one drive failure with no loss of data, as well as the copies stored on the original devices. There would need to be a series of unfortunate events for me to lose everything.

Cloud storage allows normal people to better realize a proper 3-2-1 backup strategy though, since it facilitates offsite storage.

That being said, my very important stuff is backed up to more than one cloud provider, just in case.

I built a new PC early October, literally 2 weeks later RAM prices went nuts… so glad I pulled the trigger when I did

probably around the Fedora level, they’re fairly equivalent.

The REAL question is, where does Hanna Montana OS fall on the scale?

What if that’s what he imagines this new “ballroom” will be…

All of the major gaming youtubers have made at least a couple videos featuring Linux over the last couple months, which is definitely a big change from the windows-only (except sometimes servers) content of years past.

Conventions bring both extremes… It’s either eye-watering B.O. or eye-watering cologne/perfume

These should be available mandatory at LANs.

TOR is easy enough to set up that if you know how to install a program on your computer and run it, you’re good to go. It’s not the ideal way to run TOR, and is still somewhat insecure, but can be done in a few clicks.

Back in the early 00’s, the amount of people learning how to download pirated music safely, arrange and burn a CD with it skyrocketed. Fast forward a few years and people with no real computer skills were learning how to rip and burn DVDs.

I wouldn’t underestimate the potential of people with motivation to circumvent an oppressive system.

having that for years now

since abaout the late 90’s to early 00’s. KDE 1 released with virtual desktops, and from what I can tell, Klipper either released with it, or a few years later

I used it as a holdover while getting diagnosed with ADHD, and you are right; it’s not exactly a pleasant experience. I didn’t get the bad nausea that other people reported, but if I ate “wrong” there’d be consequences for sure. But it did help with culling the binge-eating I had long enough to get my ADHD diagnosis and onto medication for that, which has helped my executive function improve to where I was able to stop ozempic and have not reverted back to those bad habits.

Executive function disorders are a bitch for sure.

TBF though, that is exactly why Baden-Powell created the Boy Scouts.

Water? Don’t touch the stuff… fish fuck in it

I’m using KRdp for the first time in several years today and am BLOWN AWAY by the quality of the connection. It is in virtually every regard as good as Windows’ RDP.
